It's Just that Simple! - Mrs. FIXIT

I’ve been potting plants this week; I thought I’d pass along one of my favorite potting tips. Use diapers! Pick up an inexpensive package of disposable diapers (you can find them at the dollar store), cut the diapers into circles and slip them into the bottom of your pots, then put the dirt on top. This is a double duty tip (no pun intended!) The diaper will keep the dirt from running out of the hole whenever you water the plant and the little crystals in the diaper will absorb water and then release it as the plant needs it so you don’t have to water as often. Gives new meaning to dirty diaper huh!
